Scenario

When community organizations must choose between funding and moral consistency

Our community garden found out that our biggest donor made his money through predatory lending, and now we're arguing about whether to give the money back even though it would mean losing the space where kids learn to grow food. Half of us think dirty money can do clean work, and half think we're laundering someone's reputation while people in our own neighborhood suffered from his business practices.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A group faces the complex reality that doing good work may require accepting resources from sources that cause harm.
